"Don't worry, he can win." Taiyi turned to look at the Robin, his expression noticeably more relaxed than before.

Just as everyone was still processing Taiyi's personnel change, Guiji's voice came from high above.

"Oh? So you're actually discussing countermeasures right in front of us? Aren't you being a bit too disrespectful to us? Go, my Propagation partner, let them see the Friendship and Bonds between us!" Guiji suddenly spoke, his tone tinged with mockery.

"Ha!"

Upon hearing Guiji's words, the Propagation Aeon opened its enormous maw, large enough to swallow half a city, and exhaled a powerful breath towards the crowd atop the Haiyuan TV Tower.

A wave of scorching heat mixed with pink mist rushed towards us, carrying with it the sickening chirping of insects, whistling past everyone's ears.

"Wow, this bug even has Häagen-Dazs flavor, it's practically Dass." Xing stroked her chin, tilting her head with a slightly subtle expression.

Seemingly enraged by Xing's words, the Propagation Aeon raised his head again and breathed even more forcefully towards the crowd.

This blast wave even created visible ripples in the air.

"Hmph. Come and hit me if you dare." Xing looked at the enraged giant insect, a smirk playing on his lips, and gave the Propagation Aeon the middle finger.

The moment the words fell, a dense, chilling chirping of insects suddenly erupted from all directions, like a thousand horns being sounded simultaneously.

The entire New Penacony, the entire Duality Paradise, almost all the surviving Propagation Swarms, regardless of size, strength, or what they were doing at the moment, simultaneously stopped what they were doing, turned in the same direction, and flew over.

The dark Swarm converged from New Penacony, like countless black rivers flowing into the same sea, eventually clustering around the Propagation Aeon.

The densely packed insects, layer upon layer, blotted out the sky and completely swallowed up the already gray firmament.

Moments later, the black curtain formed by the Swarm pressed down on everyone, overwhelming them.

"..." Xing looked at the overwhelming swarm of insects and subconsciously took a step back, shrinking behind Himeko.

"Didn't you ask them to come and beat you up?" Himeko turned her head and glanced at Hoshino with a hint of helplessness.

"I was just kidding... I thought it couldn't understand." Xing's voice softened slightly.

As the black swarm of insects, which nearly blotted out half the sky, rolled in with a suffocating sense of oppression, the Robin raised his right hand almost without hesitation, and the Command Spell on the back of his hand emitted a dazzling red light.

"In the name of the Command Spell Seal... O Servant possesses the power of Harmony, reveal your true power! By the contract, the Singer of Harmony commands you... Release the seal!" The Robin's clear and firm voice echoed atop the Haiyuan TV Tower.

As the Command Spell Seal flashed by, Celenova's body suddenly became light, slowly leaving the ground, his long white hair fluttering upwards in the windless air.

A dazzling white light suddenly burst forth from Celenova's body, enveloping the entire top of the Haiyuan TV Tower in pure white radiance. Celenova's original outline gradually blurred and dissolved in the white light, replaced by an even larger and more majestic existence.

After the white light dissipated, the Destruction Envoy Celenova, who originally had white hair, white clothes, and a white skirt, had disappeared.

Before them appeared a deity with three faces. All three faces gazed in different directions...

Aeon of Harmony, Xipe.

Almost at the moment the Harmony Aeon appeared, a sudden commotion broke out among the Swarm, which had been perfectly united under the Propagation Aeon's command.

Some insects suddenly changed their flight direction and collided with their own kind. Even more surprisingly, several larger insects turned around and launched an attack on their own Swarm.

This is the power of Harmony.

However, this was merely a slight aftershock of the moment when the Harmony Aeon descended.

However, at this moment, everyone was clearly not concerned about the movements of the Swarm.

Xing and March 7th and the others all turned their heads and their gazes fell on the Robin had just used Command Spell.

Although the Robin tried to remain calm, a blush had crept onto her cheeks, and the soft ear feathers on the back of her neck fluttered slightly, revealing her embarrassment.

"Um... why are the commands you give using Command Spell different from those of other Masters? Your lines, you know?" March 7th asked curiously.

"I... I didn't want to either. But Celenova said that only by using this kind of line to use the Command Spell can I summon the will of the Harmony Aeon and temporarily elevate the avatar to the original form..." Robin explained, blushing and stammering.

"Tell Celenova to watch less cartoons from now on. Look at what's going on, you're corrupting the child." Xing walked over, patted Robin on the shoulder, and said with some heartache.

"I... I can't control it either," the Robin muttered softly.

"Speaking of which, if you use Command Spell again, will you still need to say this line?" Hoshi suddenly thought of something and turned to ask Robin.

"That won't be necessary," the Robin shook its head.

"That's a real pity," Xing shook her head with some regret.

Harmony Aeon flew into the sky, it almost instantly plunged the previously cooperating Swarm into even greater chaos, effectively hindering the Propagation Aeon's offensive.

At the same time, the Order Aeon, Taiyi, also sought out Guiji.

High in the sky, the former Great Extinguisher, Guiji, dressed in a white tailcoat with his hat pulled up to his chest, was facing off against the Order Aeon, Taiyi was dressed in a neat suit.

"You think you can kill me? With your power as Order Aeon who has already used three Command Spell and has no reserves left? I'm not Propagation Aeon, you know. Besides, I still have all three Command Spell." Guiji chuckled, raising the back of his hand, where three Command Spell radiating red light were clearly visible.

Unlike the Propagation Aeon of Guiji and Procreation, he is immune to the special attacks of the Order Aeon.

Furthermore, Guiji still doesn't understand why Taiyi would exchange opponents with the Harmony Aeon.

Is it because it's believed that Propagation Swarm will become disorganized under the influence of Harmony interference?

That makes sense. After all, from the Propagation Swarm Propagation Aeon to the most ordinary little bugs, the breeding swarms don't really have any brains.

What the Harmony Aeon fears least is this kind of human wave tactic, because He can even brainwash the enemy into becoming cannon fodder for His own side.

This is Harmony.

In a sense, when facing Propagation Aeon that commands the Swarm, having Harmony Aeon intervene to interfere is indeed the best strategy.

However, it was merely a disturbance.

As the only insects capable of becoming gods, the command to Propagation Aeon is the only instruction these insects need to execute. However... their brains may not be able to accurately understand the Propagation Aeon's command.

"Do you know what Order is?" Faced with Guiji's teasing, Taiyi's expression did not change at all; he simply shook his head slightly.

"What? Is the Order Aeon planning to give me a moral lesson before the battle? If you're going to try and persuade me to reform, you're in for a disappointment. After all, Elation itself is a rebellion against all Order... and I happen to enjoy that feeling of rebellion." Guiji put his hat back on his head, tilted his head slightly, and spoke with amusement.

"No. So-called Order is simply a redefinition of rules. Guiji, I've heard of you. You possess the ability to appear in different places simultaneously." Taiyi paused, his gaze falling on Guiji, and continued.

"... What do you want to say?" Guiji's smile faded slightly, and a hint of wariness flashed in his eyes.

Taiyi did not answer Guiji's question, but slowly shifted his gaze to the battlefield on the other side.

There, the Aeon of Harmony, Xipe, faced the Propagation Aeon across a vast Swarm.

"In your opinion, who will win the battle between the Propagation Aeon and Celenova... or rather, between Xipe?"

Chapter 2643

"Taiyi looked at the battlefield in the distance and asked in a calm voice."

"Although Celenova has now displayed its true power under the effect of the Command Spell, it is ultimately just the blessing of Noble Phantasm or Command Spell. Once the effect dissipates, before becoming gods, neither the Lord of the Hunt nor Celenova can stop the Propagation Aeon."

Guiji narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the figure of the Harmony Aeon on the distant battlefield, and continued speaking in a calm and unhurried tone.

"And you should have noticed by now, right? Although Celenova has temporarily gained the status of the Harmony Aeon under the effect of the Command Spell, she can only govern two paths of Path... one is Harmony, and the other is Destruction. She is not in her complete form at this moment."

The Noble Phantasm mechanism of the Lord of the Hunt is that the Master uses a Command Spell, which allows the Lord of the Hunt to draw upon an arrow from its original form, the Reignbow Arbiter of the Hunt Aeon, and fire it at the enemy. This is how Command Spell enhance the Noble Phantasm of Servants.

Even as the dual-wielding Emanator of Harmony and Destruction, Celenova's normal combat strength is far inferior to that of Lord of the Hunt before he became a god. Using the same Command Spell, how can Celenova consistently unleash the power of the Harmony Aeon?

At first, Guiji was somewhat surprised when he saw Celenova transform into the Harmony Aeon. However, after seeing that the other party was only disrupting the Swarm's thoughts without directly causing any substantial damage to the Propagation Aeon, Guiji realized that the Harmony Aeon that the other party had transformed into was merely an incomplete form.

The Harmony Aeon is a triune Aeon, but Celenova, the material used to enhance Him, only possesses two Path: Harmony and Destruction.

Of course, having two Path is already quite remarkable. But Servant's Noble Phantasm doesn't concern itself with such abstract concepts.

Just like the Thirteen Constraints of King Arthur's sword, if the standard is not met, then the full power cannot be unleashed.

Although Guiji didn't know what the missing third aspect of the Harmony Aeon was, nor whether it was stronger or weaker than the Path of Destruction, as long as the other party was incomplete, there was no need to worry about the other party's strength soaring to the level of the normal Harmony Aeon.

"What if the current Harmony Aeon were to swallow up another Path that shares a similar concept?" Taiyi suddenly asked.

"What? Wait, you mean..." Guiji's expression suddenly changed. After a moment of stunned silence, he looked at Taiyi with disbelief.

Guiji knew almost instantly what Taiyi was thinking.

"What a coincidence. Standing beside me is still the Aeon of Joy. Standing opposite me is still the Propagation Aeon. And standing behind me is still the Harmony Aeon." Taiyi said with some emotion after his gaze slowly swept over the three directions.

"Are you crazy? Without you, the Order Aeon, to hold your own, how are your teammates supposed to contend with me, the Aeon of Joy?" Guiji looked at Taiyi's calm and composed expression, and a bad feeling spread from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but ask.

Guiji found it hard to imagine that he would one day be able to consider things from the other person's perspective. However, looking at Taiyi's calm and almost detached expression, Guiji always felt that the other person was up to something.

"You really think highly of yourself. Do you really think you can hold me off?" Taiyi glanced at Guiji and said casually.

"... Since we've come this far, why not just attack me directly?" Guiji snorted lightly, spreading his arms slightly, assuming a fighting stance.

"Guiji, do you know? The Holy Grail War has never been fair," Taiyi said, shaking his head.

"I've heard something about that. In the Holy Grail War, some Masters summon ordinary Servants, while others summon Aeon. It's really unfair." Guiji nodded, agreeing quite a bit.

"No, that's not what I meant. The Holy Grail War has four groups: the exhibition group, the official group, the All-People Entertainment Match group, and the Counterfeit Holy Grail War group. But the power ceiling of these four groups is different," Taiyi corrected.

"What do you mean by that?" Guiji frowned slightly.

"Because the first two groups used Summoning Miraculous Summoning Talisman Servant, while the latter two groups used the power of the New Penacony Great Holy Grail itself. Whenever Summoning Miraculous Item are involved, their priority is terrifyingly high. Especially the Command Spell used by Masters in the official and exhibition groups, which are practically cheat codes," Taiyi continued to explain.

Taiyi believes that Guiji probably also had some idea about this.

Especially considering that the other party even reached the pinnacle of their Path of Joy by devouring the insect from the exhibition match group, they must have a deeper understanding of the illogical power of the Servant summoned by the Miraculous Summoning Talisman.

"So?" Guiji didn't reply, but took a step back without making a sound.

"Moreover, a Master can indeed only possess three Command Spell. But my Master obtained an extra Command Spell in an inconspicuous corner." After saying this, Taiyi looked at Guiji.

"..." Guiji fell silent. He couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong, but his intuition told him that something was about to happen.

"Speaking of which, I'm weaving a new Order. What are you waiting for? To die?" Taiyi tilted his head, looking at Guiji who had been standing still, and asked casually.

"Not good!" Upon hearing Taiyi's words, Guiji's pupils suddenly contracted, and his figure transformed into a blur in an instant, rushing straight towards Taiyi.

But just as Guiji's fingertips were about to touch Taiyi, a crisp sound rang out from the void.

A golden chain appeared out of thin air and shot towards Guiji at lightning speed.

Upon discovering the chain, Guiji abruptly twisted his body and retreated rapidly. But the chain seemed to have locked onto Guiji's aura, relentlessly pursuing him, drawing a smooth arc in the air, passing through Guiji's evasive path, and finally piercing through his chest from the front.

"!!!"

Guiji looked down at the golden chain that had pierced his chest.

But strangely... there were no wounds.

There was no blood, no cracks, and not even the clothes were damaged.

But Guiji was not happy at all, because his intuition told him that he was in big trouble.

"What did you do?" Guiji raised his head, looked at Taiyi, and asked in a deep voice.

"It's nothing. It's just that I'm willing to stand with you through thick and thin, through life and death," Taiyi said casually.

"Oh... I think I understand. Do you mean I should live and die with my clones? Or live and die with you? You want to drag me into this, then let the Harmony Aeon inherit your legacy of Path of Order, and after you've gathered the three faces, crush the Propagation Aeon?" Guiji's eyes flickered for a moment, and his tone even carried a hint of admiration.

"Pretty much. My Master gave this Noble Phantasm a new name, something like... 'Changing Fate at the Same Moment.' Anyway, it connects the lives and destinies of people together." Taiyi nodded, not denying it.

In many people's eyes, Aeon should possess majesty.

The Order Aeon should constantly establish new Orders and do as he pleases.

Although Taiyi felt that this was just a human stereotype of the Aeon, the Noble Phantasm formed from this concept did indeed come in handy at this moment.

"I refuse. My favorite thing to do is say no to people who think they're sure to win," Guiji said almost without hesitation.

The moment the words left his mouth, Guiji's hand, which was holding the dice and pressing them against his neck, suddenly moved.

The die was tossed high into the air, tumbled and spun several times before slowly falling back into the palm of the hand.

At the same time, countless possibilities appeared before Guiji. Like countless doors opening at the same time, allowing Guiji to choose the one he desired.

This was Guiji's original power... and after reaching the pinnacle of the Path of Joy, the priority of this power was enough to influence the might of the Aeon. But...

Guiji suddenly froze, the dice fell back into his hand, but Guiji gaze remained fixed on the possible images, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"What's wrong? What did you see?" Taiyi asked Guiji with some curiosity.

Chapter 2644

"How is this possible... You spent a Command Spell to delay the new Order I've been weaving for so long, and now you need my consent and a vote before you can live and die with me?" Guiji's voice carried a rare hint of confusion.

"That's right. After all, it's about sharing life and death with an Aeon. Even with the blessing of the Command Spell, to ensure the effect, I specifically focused on instant death rather than broad applicability." Taiyi nodded noncommittally.

"Oh, dear Taiyi, then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. If you want the Harmony Aeon to assimilate my avatar and agree to live and die together... then the incomplete Harmony Aeon is not yet qualified."

"But if He were to absorb your Path of Order and complete the Three Faces, then He would indeed be qualified to assimilate my avatar. But by then you would already be dead, so how could you share life and death with me?" Guiji spread his hands and said calmly.

"That's not the case." Taiyi shook his head.
